Canon U.S.A. Inc. offers the VB-C500VD Vandal Resistant Fixed Mini-Dome Network Camera. Built for indoor use, the camera is designed with special advanced features which make it suitable for applications susceptible to vandalism or tampering. Paramount to the design of this camera is Canon's new Multi-Directional Shock Absorber, a four-spring mechanism designed to protect the camera by lessening the effects of impact from various angles. In addition, the camera also boasts a new vandal-resistant housing with tamper-proof screws and a specially designed housing built with materials that reduce the possibility of both external damage to the housing and internal damage to the camera.
